A Faithful Son

Description

This captivating coming of age tale chronicles the life of Zach Nance, a young man struggling to find his place in an ever-shifting world, and the zany cast of local characters who help him come to an understanding of himself and the secret he harbors.

The small town of Durango, Colorado, provides the rural backdrop for Garvin’s masterful novel. A hunky traveling carnie, an eccentric gaggle of pious church spinsters, a flirty drag queen and Jesus Christ himself all make appearances.

After tragedy befalls the Nance’s, Zach’s close-knit family unravels. He vows to protect his beloved mother and sister from the fallout of his troubled father’s choices—forcing young Zach to redefine his loyalties, his faith, and his own destiny.
